It's Official, today!
We have a party for SQL Server 2008 in LA! The product may not be shipping, but that won't stop us from having our party.
Seriously, Today marks the beginning of a more useful Launch than the 2005 launch. What am I saying? The Launch Events will probably be more educational for you this time around because there hasn't been as much focus on having a lot of events on 2008 as of yet. Signup today for a launch event near you!
